Hello Everyone,
I'm trying to design a High Ampere (4-8A) Bipolar stepper Driver and I am looking at various possibilities now.
I came across the L6203 4A Full Bridge from ST. This is the basic L297/L6203 Bipolar Stepper driver setup.
L297 + 2 x L6203 Full Bridge ===> 4A Max per Phase
I checked the L6203 Datasheet and it says 4A MAX in FULL Bridge Mode. I was just wondering if its possible to use the L6203 in a half bridge mode? So my setup would look like:
L297 + 2 x L6203 Half Bridge + 2 x L6203 Half Bridge ===> 8A Max per Phase
Is such a setup possible? Any idea/Suggestion/Opinion is highly appreciated.
Please Advice!
Thank You,
Joe!
